In the case of a DNS takedown, all it would take would be for The Pirate Bay to publish a browser extension that stores a few IP addresses and "drops in" whenever the user attempts to acces thepiratebay.se.
- chimeracoder 14y agoSavvy users in parts of Europe (Denmark, I believe) are already just adding an /etc/hosts entry to do exactly this. That doesn't solve the problem of the IP address itself changing, but then you need some system of distributing the updated IP addresses whenever they change. Which would require inventing a distributed lookup system....hmm... this is starting to sound familiar....!
